This study explores journalism students' responses to hazards and hostility in the profession within a Safety of Journalists course. The research uses focus group interviews, field notes, study diaries, written tasks, and Teams' chat logs of 11 students. Students' reactions to the hazards highlight the importance of awareness for finding solutions and developing resilience. Proposed solutions include fostering self-assurance, enhancing interpersonal communication, setting boundaries to prevent burnout, and recognizing the significance of workers' rights. However, finding some solutions was hindered by students' experiences of media organizations neglecting worker well-being. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study examines how solutions journalism education translates to professional practice, through in-depth interviews with current media professionals who encountered solutions journalism when they were in college. Findings suggest that solutions journalism education resonates powerfully with students, and incorporating the practice in J-school curriculum may have the potential to reengage disenchanted students. Whereas there remain significant barriers to practicing the approach in the workplace, participants revealed that their encounters at university with solutions journalism positively affected their reporting style, interview skills, and perspective of journalism's role in society.

L'objectif de cette recherche est d'étudier la qualité de vie des travailleurs de la mode et du luxe, particulièrement des ouvrières travaillant à des métiers de confection. Une étude qualitative a été menée auprès d'un échantillon de 17 volontaires exerçant leur activité dans des ateliers de confection, de la mode et du luxe dans la région des Pays-de-la-Loire, en France. Des entretiens semi-directifs ont permis le recueil d'un corpus de données analysé grâce à un traitement lexicométrique. Une classification hiérarchique descendante (CHD) a été menée sur l'ensemble du corpus, ainsi qu'une analyse factorielle des correspondances (AFC) via l'utilisation du logiciel IRaMuTeQ. Les résultats révèlent que le discours est organisé selon six classes thématiques : communication au travail, représentation du métier et reconnaissance, poste de travail et santé physique, temporalité, affects et activité, entraide et organisation du travail, environnement de travail hors activité. Les résultats montrent qu'un ensemble de facteurs organisationnels, sociaux, techniques et environnementaux associés à un ensemble d'affects (à valence positive et négative) sont liés à la qualité de vie au travail de ces salariées. The aim of this research is to study the perception of the quality of work life of fashion and luxury workers, particularly female workers in the garment industry. A qualitative study was conducted with a sample size of seventeen volunteers working in garment, fashion and luxury workshops in the Pays-de-la-Loire region of France. Semi-structured interviews were carried out to collect a corpus of data that was analyzed using lexicometric analysis. A descending hierarchical classification (DHC) was conducted on the whole corpus, as well as a factorial correspondence analysis (FCA) using the IRaMuTeQ software. The results show that the discourse is organized according to six thematic classes: work communication, job representation and recognition, workstation and physic health, temporality, affects and activity, mutual aid and work organization, and work environment outside the activity. The results reveal a group of organizational, social, technical and environmental factors associated with a set of affects (both positively and negatively valenced) related to the quality of work life (QWL) of these female employees.

Contexte : Le développement de phytomédicaments ou médicaments traditionnels améliorés en Afrique sub-saharienne connait un succès grandissant. En Côte d’Ivoire, diverses unités artisanales de fabrication de phytomédicaments se développent mais restent peu évalués pour leur efficacité, innocuité et qualité. Justificatif : Parmi toutes les pathologies affectant la population subsaharienne, le paludisme occupe une place importante étant la première cause de maladie infectieuse parasitaire, et la 3ème cause de maladies infectieuses. Les produits de santé des tradithérapeutes restent peu évalués pour leur efficacité, innocuité et qualité. Les chercheurs et enseignants chercheurs au sein des universités ont emboîté le pas dans plusieurs pays. En Côte d’Ivoire aucune université n’a franchi le pas de la production à l’échelle d’unité industrielle pilote. Objectif : L’objectif de ce travail visait à sélectionner des plantes pour la mise au point de phytomédicaments antipaludiques de qualité de catégorie 2 OMS. Méthodologie : La sélection des plantes à l’essai a concerné celles ayant fait l’objet de travaux de recherche des Universités en Côte d’Ivoire. Parmi ces derniers, ceux évaluant l’effet sur des extraits aqueux de parties aériennes des plantes. De ces extraits ceux présentant les meilleures inhibitions de croissance du Plasmodium selon les critères de Wilcox, ont été retenues pour la mise au point de phytomédicaments de catégorie 2 OMS. Les essais de pré formulation er formulation galénique à l’échelle de laboratoire ont permis de mettre en œuvre le procédé de fabrication adéquat. Une transposition à l’échelle pilote a été ensuite réalisée pour démontrer la reproductibilité de la fabrication industrielle de la forme galénique mise au point. Résultats : Ces résultats issus des travaux de chercheurs des universités ivoiriennes ont permis de recenser 58 plantes médicinales étudiées pour leur activité antiplasmodiale depuis 1996. Parmi ces plantes 38 ont fait l’objet d’extraits aqueux, décoctés ou infusés. Sept extraits aqueux présentant de CI50

Abstract: Background and Aims: This article summarizes the findings and conclusions of the third edition of Alcohol: No Ordinary Commodity. The latest revision of this book is part of a series of monographs designed to provide a critical review of the scientific evidence related to alcohol control policy from a public health perspective. Design: A narrative summary of the contents of the book according to five major issues. Findings: An extensive amount of epidemiological evidence shows that alcohol is a major contributor to the global burden of disease, disability and death in high-, middle- and low-income countries. Trends in alcohol products and marketing are described, indicating that a large part of the global industry has been consolidated into a small number of transnational corporations that are expanding their operations in Asia, Africa and Latin America. The main part of the book is devoted to a review of strategies and interventions designed to prevent or minimize alcohol-related harm. Overall, the most effective strategies to protect public health are taxation that decreases affordability and restrictions on the physical availability of alcohol. A total ban on alcohol marketing is also an effective strategy to reduce consumption. In addition, drink-driving counter-measures, brief interventions with at-risk drinkers and treatment of drinkers with alcohol dependence are effective in preventing harm in high-risk contexts and groups of hazardous drinkers. Conclusion: Alcohol policy is often the product of competing interests, values and ideologies, with the evidence suggesting that the conflicting interests between profit and health mean that working in partnership with the alcohol industry is likely to lead to ineffective policy. Opportunities for implementation of evidence-based alcohol policies that better serve the public good are clearer than ever before as a result of accumulating knowledge on which strategies work best.

Context and background The land is a finite resource for which competition is intensifying due to rapid urbanization, population growth, economic necessities... In Morocco, the land is increasingly seen as an obstacle and a major constraint on several levels. . In the industrial sector, the land is an essential lever for investment. In this context, we can cite the issue of the management of industrial zones, which remains a global dilemma. It also raises the issue of the place of the State concerning the private sector in the development, planning, marketing, and management of areas. This study on the issue of industrial land falls within the context of a new ambition that Morocco has set itself, through the Emergence industrial strategy, which aims to accelerate the growth of the industrial sector in certain key sectors of development. This industrial growth should increase the demand for industrial land in the years to come, which makes it all the more urgent to accelerate the reforms underway in this area, and to improve the quality of these industrial zones so that the land issue does not constitute a brake on this expansion. And to properly deal with the problem, we opted for an international benchmark of developing countries that share the same position as Morocco and which manage this type of land in a different way, such as Tunisia and its GMGs, and Turkey with a governing state system and its associations. Goal and Objectives: This document seeks an answer to the question of how to achieve industrial land management that responds to national needs and problems by adopting the experiences of other countries. Methodology: The first part is a bibliographic study and the representation of collected data in the form of graphs. The second part is a documentary analysis which consists of an international benchmark which treats the various modes of management of the industrial zones in Morocco, Tunisia and in Turkey. And finally a qualitative study in the form of a case study, accompanied by a directive interview with representatives of the Ministry of Industry and Market players. Results: it is difficult to speak of an ideal model but the pseudo-perfect model is a model in which the public actors, especially the municipalities, are not fully involved or designated as the main managers of the industrial zones. It is a model where the developer-investor contract takes place under exhaustive specifications and commits the stakeholders. This is the model where urban planning takes the problem of access to land in concrete terms: the status of the bases, the surface and the mobilization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Paris au XXe siècle, roman de Jules Verne censuré par son éditeur Hetzel et de ce fait peu connu, trace les contours d’un monde cauchemardesque où l’homme est piégé par le progrès, l’industrie et l’économie. Aux fondements de la société futuriste imaginée par l’auteur, Paris se mue en ville tentaculaire abritant des automates dotés de cœurs industriels qui méprisent l’art et répugnent les artistes. Le personnage principal, poète déchu rejeté et par sa famille et par la société, se mue en anti-héros et tourne en rond dans une ville qui gît sous le poids écrasant du « démon de l’électricité » et où seuls scientifiques, industriels et banquiers triomphent. Le dégoût et le désenchantement marquent l’œuvre de bout en bout l’enfermant dans une circularité qui reflète celle de la ville, concentrique, dont on ne peut échapper que pour trouver la mort.

The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic illustrates the necessity of effective preventive measures for existing and newly emerging pathogens. When confronted with pathogens or spoilage agents, especially if they are not yet well studied, effective hygiene protocols are needed immediately. In the medical field, effective preventive measures are key to prevent vulnerable patients from infections. In production areas, effective hygiene measures are needed to protect goods from spoilage or microbial contamination. The European standardization framework established by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) ensures that effective hygiene measures are available and can be immediately implemented when needed. Based on a broad portfolio of standards/laboratory tests, activity claims specifically addressing the special features of applications of antimicrobial formulations are substantiated. In this review, the concept of using standardized surrogate test organisms is explained, and the European standardized test approach to claim microbicidal and virucidal efficacy, the specificity of claims and their relevance for infection prevention measures is illustrated. Furthermore, relevance of the European Norm test methods is elucidated in the light of legal requirements. Finally, the review explains the systematics of the standardized methodological portfolio of CEN, Technical Committee 216, which is very useful when effective strategies for fighting or preventing microbial and viral induced infections, contaminations or spoilage are needed on an immediate basis.

Le travail proposé ici est une première exploration de la reconversion du patrimoine industriel sur le territoire du Parc naturel régional des Monts d’Ardèche, étudié dans le cadre d’une thèse CIFRE en géographie. Après être revenus sur les paradoxes imposant le statut de marge à ces formes de patrimonialisation, nous proposons un tour d’horizon des reconversions ardéchoises construit à partir d’un recensement des sites industriels. L’objectif est de cibler ce que ces projets questionnent en termes de ressources patrimoniales, d’habiter et de communs. L’émergence de certaines initiatives, nos cas d’études, de reconversion inventive nous amènerons enfin à discuter des recompositions induites sur les ruralités et plus globalement sur les transformations sociétales actuelles.

Au Maroc, le foncier est de plus en plus considéré comme un obstacle et une contrainte majeure sur plusieurs niveaux. Dans le secteur industriel le foncier est un levier essentiel à l’investissent, le développement qu’a connu le secteur industriel depuis lancement de Plan d’Accélération Industriel nécessite une importante assiette foncière pour répondre aux besoins des industriels. Devant cette situation, la mobilisation du foncier au profit des industriels s’avère une question primordiale. Dans ce cadre, nous pouvons citer la problématique de la spéculation, la dualité du régime foncier, la diversité des statuts fonciers, la lenteur des procédures et la multitude des intervenants, mauvaise valorisation, etc. Les problèmes soulevés ci-dessus suffisent, nous semble-t-il, pour illustrer l’urgence de penser à des solutions. C’est dans ce contexte que notre projet de fin d’étude se propose pour mettre en évidence les processus de mobilisation au profit des investisseurs à savoir : la cession et la location. L’objectif de ce travail c'est de présenter les modes de mobilisation et les avantages et inconvénients de chacun, afin de répondre aux besoins des investisseurs.

Context and background: In Morocco, especially in the manufacturing field, land is an important instrument for investment. The growth of the manufacturing sector since the launching of the Industrial Acceleration Plan has required a large stock of land to satisfy the needs of the industrialists. However, land is presenting more barriers as one of the most obstacles at several levels. In front of such a situation, the mobilization of the land for the industrial sector is a primordial question. In this context, we can cite the problem of land grabbing, the duality of the land regimes, the diversity of the land statuses, the slowness of the procedures and the multitude of the intervening parties, non-proper valorization, etc. Goal and Objectives: The challenges raised above are bases to illustrate the urgency of thinking about solutions. It is in this context that the study proposes to highlight the processes of mobilization for the benefit of investors, namely: the transfer and the rent. The various modes of land mobilization, the advantages, and disadvantages of each mode will be described in order to meet the needs of the investors. Methodology: The method we used to accomplish our objectives is based on the analysis of the documentation, the consultation of land data from MICENT as well as a survey to collect additional information on the stakeholders in this ecosystem. Results and findings: From the analysis of the results of our survey, we can deduce that choosing a single mode which meets the needs of manufacturers and suits the business model of the various industrial sectors is difficult. The ideal will be to adopt a wide range of choices and to have a mixed model in order to offer all the required flexibility, transfer, rental, and emphyteutic lease when it is possible.
